2. Cerro San Cristobal (Saint Cristopher's Hill)

BELLAVISTA.   Named for Catholic Saint Christopher, this hill in the centrally located Parque Metropolitano offers a choice spot in the city for panoramic views on clear days when the smog that often blankets the region dissipates. Walk or ride to the summit where the views of Santiago below are a patchwork quilt meeting the breathtaking peaks of the Andes beyond. Travelers will want to be sure to visit the Virgen de la Imaculada statue at the peak and stop by the zoo and wine museum on the trip up.   (© 10Best)

You can take a fun little funicular train up the Cerro San Cristobal, highly recommended. I have posted more info (and photos!) on my blog at: http://24hourstravelguide.blogspot.com/2008/08/cerro-san-cristobal-santiago-chile.html
